LIST OF SAR EQUIPMENTS.............................................................. Pg. 91 - 92 1 INTRODUCTION Nature offers every thing to man. It sustains his life. Man enjoys the beauties of nature and lives on them. But he also becomes a victim of the fury of nature. Natural calamities like famines and floods take a heavy toll of human life and property. Man seems to have little chance in fighting against natural forces. The topography of the district of Darjeeling is such that among the four sub-divisions, three sub-divisions are located in the hills where disasters like landslides, landslip, road blockade are often occurred during monsoon. On the other side, in the Siliguri Sub-Division which lies in the plain there is possibility of flood due to soil erosion/ embankment and flash flood. As district of Darjeeling falls under Seismic Zone IV the probability of earthquake cannot be denied. Flood/ cyclone/ landslide often trouble men. Heavy rains results in rivers and banks overflowing causing damage on a large scale. Unrelenting rains cause human loss. In a hilly region like Darjeeling district poor people do not have well constructed houses especially in rural areas. Because of incessant rains houses collapse and kill people. Rivers and streams overflow inundating large areas. Roads and footpaths are sub merged under water. -

However, several anthropogenic activities especially overexploitation of the biological resources for commercial purposes are adversely affecting it, resulting to loss of many of these. So, it is vital to identify such biological resources, extent of their present and further potential uses to conserve, use sustainably those and sharing the benefits out of their commercial uses. With this aim, our Board is implementing the first Global Environment Facility (GEF) national project “Strengthening the implementation of the Biological Diversity Act and Rules with focus on its Access and Benefit Sharing (ABS) Provisions” with the support from United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC), Government of India. We are very happy that National Biodiversity Authority has entrusted us to implement this unique globally important project. -

Indigenous Knowledge of Rajbanshi agriculturists of northern West Bengal, India Ashok Das Gupta, Dept. of Anthropology, University of North Bengal, India 734004 This paper is a small ethnographic documentation of Indigenous Knowledge of Rajbanshi agriculturists of northern West Bengal, India. This paper is a small ethnographic documentation of Indigenous Knowledge of Rajbanshi agriculturists of northern West Bengal, India. Rajbanshi is a caste-community overlap and as a huge social fold intake various heterogeneous groups in plains and uplands of sub-Himalayan northern west Bengal state of India. Their informal experimentation, trial and error, folk life, tradition, cultural symbols, generation-wise intellectual reasoning are equally important to gather scattered indigenous knowledge traits and their cognate Indigenous Knowledge System extending from mode of production and division of labour to their structure and super structure. This is basically a qualitative study and will highlight various services by both Rajbanshi males and females to attain organic cultivation and management of biodiversity. North Bengal jungles, mountains and agrarian lands are biodiversity hotpots and like various other indigenous communities Rajbanshis show their contribution in production and food preservation. They have developed a lifestyle that may look poor but actually fitting into local environments. Their kitchen garden, highland and lowland cultivations and use of forest and water resources and cattle hordes cum poultry develop together a complex system that can serve a wider public.

North Bengal University, Dist. Darjeeling, West Bengal. Date: Abstract The present dissertation theme has explained very critically the various aspects of the Uttarkhanda Dal from its very formation in 1969 to its final split in 1987. The Uttarkhanda Dal was a first regional political party, organized by a section of Rajbanshi community, a major ethnic group of people of the northern plains of West Bengal popularly known as North Bengal or Uttarbanga. The formation of this regional political party in post independence period and its activities especially in post 1980s because of various reasons created a socio-political tension in the region under review.
